I can speak freely since I'm a caveman over here :)

cvs import will do just fine, I assume. Maybe it's better that you prune
the source tree before that. If you are willing to loose the history,
that makes things easier, but I don't think this is a requirement.
Quite honestly, I don't see much value in the incubation process for
Tapestry. Unfortunately, http://incubator.apache.org/resolution.html
seems to indicate it is a requirement projects to pass through this
incubation process, stalling the process in this precise case.
